With only a few minutes to spare, I used my HomeRight pop up spray shelter to spray a few wooden pumpkins I found at Joann Fabrics with gold spray paint. I love the pop up spray shelter because I don't need to waste time setting up or taking too much time for the cleanup. Just pop it up and spray! You can check out the spray shelter I used here.

Two coats of gold paint were enough and in about 15 minutes, they were dry and ready to use. I also sprayed a few other items for my Thanksgiving buffet table display which you can see on my blog using the link at the end.

Once your pumpkins are dry, use a chalkboard pen to write the names of your guests. I like the soft touch of the names, but if you want a bolder look you could easily use a paint pen in another shade of color.

Use some decorative ribbon around your folded napkin and adhere your placecard to the ribbon using dab of glue. A glue gun is best, but you could easily rest it on the napkin for the same look.
